Abstract:
Class II malocclusion is the most common issue encountered in orthodontic practice. Myofunctional appliances are the most effective treatment option for skeletal class II malocclusion in growing age. Twin block is the most commonly used removable functional appliance, although its success is dependent upon patient compliance. The aim of this article is to present an effective modification of the conventional twin block appliance that can be used as an alternative to the fixed functional appliance in noncompliant skeletal class II patients with mandibular retrusion.
